PARIS MUST NOW FLEE
FROM GASEOUS BOMBS
Refuge Out-of-Doors Is Advised, in Contrast to Previous 'Warning to Seek
Cellars When Zeppelins Appear.
BY RUBY KI.IN TI! UGH ES.
PARIS. June- 7. (Special.) It is not
always easy to follow directions.
Variety is the spice of life, but
sometimes in war times life Is spicy
enough without too much variety. - All
during tha Winter we. in Paris, were
told by mouth of the press that when
the alert ws sounded the alert was
the auto fire engines racing, honking t
through the streets accompanied by a
bugli-r who blew certain notes, clear,
staccato and quickly repeated, an
nouncing the approaching Zeppelins
to close the windows, put out the lijchta
and to go down Into the cellar, and to
stay there until "danger past" was
sounded.
If it were late In the nicht the ccn
ceirce that person indifferent and
stern who lets you In and out. who re
ceives your bill collector and your best
beaux, your dailv mail and the milk
man was to awaken those heavy sleep
ers that even a Ctabriel's trumpet
wouldn t disturb. The situation de
manded prompt action. It was no eajy
task to invoice in the twinkling of an
eye all the Inhabitants of a hotl or an
apartment house. These con.-lernes are
real warriors, and equal to all emerg
encies and they seem to know If a
woman has forcotten her pearl neck
lace or left behind her pet poodle. Oh.
these concierges re Indefatigable. They
with candle in hand liko a Messed pil
lar of llht lead their children down
Into tli mysterious darkness, down In
to the cob-w-eb festooned cellars.
"Sabaaarlara 1 a vade Seera.
Then came the pleasantry, again
through the press, that there were sub
marines In the I nns sew era. with or
ders "Kveryboily to tlie attic!"
Now It Is bombs of asphyxiating gas.
with orders, tf the bomb falls in the
house, to so outside of the house; If tha
bomb falls outside the house to stay In
side the house, but under no circum
stances to descend into lle cellar be
cause poisonous gases, which are al
ways heavy, will descend into the cel
lar also. Then what to do? Mr. Ou.
tave Tery, in the morning Journal,
Rives his advice: I believe that it is
wisest to wait tranquil. You will see
well enough when the bomb bursts If it
is gas or not. If it Is not. go down
stairs, if It is. go up in the attic and
Plug your nose with a cloth imbibed
In hyposulphite of soda."
There Is a funny aide to all this to
me. I believe that we In Paris today,
don't know Just exactly "where we
are at."
These last days the press, in tones
grave and serious, urges that precau
tions ba observed aaainst bombs of
asphyxiating gas. Knowing that thee
bombs were thrown last week in Lon
don with succh disastrous effect. It
makes one reailxe that we are living
in an epoch when it Is necesi-ary to
foresee even the Imprevu. notwithstand .
lng the vigilance of the aerial defend
ers. It must be admitted that the Zep
pelins could attempt another raid on
ParU.
Kairnjaelf Are Xaairrvsa.
Such a demonstration would not have
strategic value. It would, nevertheless,
be of Intense Interest to those persons
exposed to receive a projectile in the
neck or to be suffocated. The Zeppe
llnes not only throw engines of de
struction and Incendiary bombs, but
they throw also asphyxiating bombs.
It Is necessary that the people ot Paris
should prepare themselves for any
emergency and to know that the Ger
mans misht let fall. considerable
quantity of liquid or asphyxiating ks.
As precaution there have been dis
tributed to the police of Paris and of
tConcluded on l't .
